I'll see people skateboarding through traffic with a phone in one hand, shopping bag in the other. Anyone I've seen do this has actually been outrageously good. Blows my mind how they manage it all with zero fuss. Then the other day some blond chick was tit-tatting on her phone; walks in front of a car. She would have been hamburger if someone hadn't grabbed her. There are those who simply have the city clocked, and those who aren't aware of the city at all.

A part of me can't wait for some moron to walk in front of a car. Constantly dodging people -- mostly women -- jamming up the sidewalk traffic, walking at a crawl, on the phone; oblivious. Annoying as shit. Another, larger part of me hopes I will never witness such a thing, because it would be girsly; brutal. And my memory would ensure I'd be replaying it mentally in grisly detail later, whether I wanted to or not.

no idea if it was phones or dumbassery that caused it, but i was walking to the bus station a few years back and saw the wreckage of a really bad smash. front of the car completely totalled, glass everwhere, lamppost knocked over. ambulances there but the paramedics were packing up in no great hurry, made me think "oh i get it, don't think there was anything they could've done for whoever that was". not nice

A regular luncheon discussion at work is, "I saw a wicked car crash the other day." Fun fact, Boston uses the word "wicked" just as Brits do

The most recent one that came up involved a Nissan SUV gunning it on green and a Dodge charger running the yellow light at 40+ MPH. Xterra like an upended turtle despite the vastly greater mass

City has thus-far banned escooters, probably because they'd kill half a dozen people a week.
